📍 DAY 2 UPDATE
Day 2 saw the team set off from Dortmund at 7.30am, with 964km ahead, finally arriving in Gliwice, Poland, at around 8pm after several major traffic jams in both Germany and Poland.
Despite the delays, the weather was good and progress remained steady. ✅ There was a slight concern when the engine oil warning light came on, but the team topped up at the next service station and are continuing towards the Ukrainian border, ready for the crossing at around 4am on Sunday morning.
🚐 THE JOURNEY CONTINUES! 🇺🇦
The team has now completed over two-thirds of the journey!
❤️ WE'VE REACHED OUR FUNDRAISING TARGET!
We are absolutely overwhelmed by the incredible support through our JustGiving page. Reaching our target in just two days is amazing, and a massive thank you goes to everyone who has donated and helped make this mission possible. 🙏
🍺 After a long day on the road, a Polish b**r was a very welcome sight!
Safe travels to David and the whole team as they continue towards Ukraine. Thank you all for your fantastic support! ❤️💙💛
